Gram-positive rods, 0.8-1.2 x 1.8-2.2 µm. Non-motile. Endospores are not observed.
Colonies are waxy, circular, non-translucent and 2-3 mm in diameter after incubation
at 32 ºC for 48 h on LB medium. Growth occurs at 15-39 ºC (optimum 30 ºC), at pH
5-9 (optimum pH 7) and with 0-5% (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0.5%). Facultatively
anaerobic.
